We're off to Ko Phang-nan today. No full moon until 26 Sept but perhaps this is a good thing... We've also accepted that we're not going to manage a full ciruit of Indochina and so have decided to bite the bullet and try to get to Angkor Wat (northern Cambodia) by this weekend. A lot of travelling over the next few days!

You fuggin' buggers, Angkor Wat...Got to get there. Ah being smashed when it's inhumanely hot, humid and you don't speak the the language...look here my good fellow, I paid for the cab ride when I got in, GIVE ME MY BAG!

Please continue to have fun and testing the physical limits of your digestive systems. Much love, g
